HOME CV

Hello Old Friend!

I am a 4th year Ph.D. student in the Kahlert School of Computing at the University of Utah. My research interests are in the broad areas of security, privacy, and internet measurement. I am interested in developing new tools and techniques to advance the understanding of security and privacy issues, by leveraging internet measurement and data-driven analysis.

My research is advised by Prof. Robert Ricci, University of Utah. I collaborate with Prof. Alex Gamero-Garrido, University of California, Davis and Prof. Kevin Borgolte, Ruhr University Bochum (RUB), Germany.

I am a part of Flux Research Group at the University of Utah. I had the privilege of being a Fellow at the EPFL Summer Research Institute (SuRI 2023). I was a part of the Georgia Tech’s Second Annual Cybersecurity Summer Institute cohort and a pre-doctoral fellow at Cornell, Maryland, Max Planck Pre-doctoral Research School (CMMRS 2022).
